Alphaset

HAI's unique water soluble phenolic chemistry can be used with all types of sand and provides foundries with high quality castings, less cleaning room costs, and increased profits.

Alphaset

The Alphaset System is a no-bake foundry binder system utilizing an alkaline phenolic resin cured by an organic ester co-reactant developed and patented by Borden Chemical.

This resins system is a two-part, water soluble system that delivers the production of quality castings.

Why foundries use Alphaset?

Compared to Furan - no sulphur and no FA equals lower odor and a pleasanter system to use

Compared to Phenolic-urethane - no organic solvents means lower odor and a pleasanter system to use

Compared to FA and PUNB; Easier strip means better pattern life and striping can happen long after strip time
